Selecting a Problem:
* select a problem that your are genuinely interested in * be realistic and attempt only on what you can finish, given other demands on your time and energy
Defining Your Interests
* personal experiences and firsthand knowledge: don’t disregard personal experiences as an important source of ideas* using ideas from your mentor or instructor* look for a research question that reflects the next step in the research process

FRAMEWORKS OF RESEARCH A Framework is an underlying context a study or the broad area of concern under which a researcher situates the problem. For example, the specific problem focuses on DIET OF FEMALE SIXTH GRADERS, the framework may be taken from NUTRITION. If the problem is on SMOKING, the framework could be on RESPIRATORY INTEGRITY OR STRESS. If the problem is on INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIP, the framework could be on EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE.

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
> this is used when the research involves testing of a particular theory or that the research is based on a theory
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
> this is utilized if the research is anchored on a particular concept, yet the researcher develops first his/her concept of the study he/she would like to undertake.

NOTE: > In special cases, theoretical and conceptual frameworks are used when the nature of the study necessitates such that the Research starts anchoring its study on a particular theory and tries to situate it in the context where the theory is applied. In the course of contextualizing, modifications are made in the original variables of the theory:
Example: BUSINESS THEORY: Deming’s TQM ModelConceptual Reference of the Study: Educational Institution
Modifications: Inclusion of Curriculum Design and Development, Research Development, Community Alliances and Linkages

EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH: QUASI-EXPERIMENTS
OBJECTIVE
To approximate the conditions of the true experiment in a setting which does not allow the control and/or manipulation of all relevant variables. The researchers must clearly understand what compromise exists in the internaland the external validity of his design and proceeds within these limitations (no random assignment of respondents)
Most so-called field experiments operational research, and even the
most sophisticated forms of action research which attempt to get at causal
factors in real life settings where only partial control
is possible; example

The heading Participants is one of the subsections under method.
In describing the participants, the researcher should clearly define the number of respondents included in the study, criteria for inclusion and exclusion, the characteristics of the samples, the sampling procedure, and the nature of the population from which the sample was drawn.
![Page 60: MECHANICS OF NURSING RESEARCH MECHANICS OF NURSING RESEARCH Jestoni Dulva Maniago, RN., RM., MAN., MA.Ed. (ip) DNSc (ip) Open Researcher and Contributor](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062801/56649e1b5503460f94b09a2f/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)

The study will consist of two intact Educational Research classes at Ramon Magsaysay Technological University who will be all third year students pursuing the Bachelor of Elementary Education program. The two selected classes will be assigned to either the control group or the experimental group at random. To minimize the teacher factor effect, the researcher will handle both classes.

SAMPLE AND SAMPLING TECHNIQUES
Samples are representatives of the entire population and thus should be selected properly employing the scientific techniques
Samples are used instead of population for three main reasons:
> TIME, EFFORT, AND MONEY (TEM)
![Page 63: MECHANICS OF NURSING RESEARCH MECHANICS OF NURSING RESEARCH Jestoni Dulva Maniago, RN., RM., MAN., MA.Ed. (ip) DNSc (ip) Open Researcher and Contributor](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062801/56649e1b5503460f94b09a2f/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
SAMPLING TECHNIQUES
DETERMINING THE IDEAL SAMPLE SIZE
This implies calculating the desirable number of respondents to be included in the study from a group of a particular population
This employs: SLOVIN’S FORMULA (to be discussed further in the review)
![Page 64: MECHANICS OF NURSING RESEARCH MECHANICS OF NURSING RESEARCH Jestoni Dulva Maniago, RN., RM., MAN., MA.Ed. (ip) DNSc (ip) Open Researcher and Contributor](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062801/56649e1b5503460f94b09a2f/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
SAMPLING TECHNIQUES
A. RANDOM OR PROBABILITY SAMPLING
> This means that every member of the population has the equal chance to becoming part of the sample group
Samples are picked up at random
![Page 65: MECHANICS OF NURSING RESEARCH MECHANICS OF NURSING RESEARCH Jestoni Dulva Maniago, RN., RM., MAN., MA.Ed. (ip) DNSc (ip) Open Researcher and Contributor](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062801/56649e1b5503460f94b09a2f/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
A. RANDOM OR PROBABILITY SAMPLING TECHNIQUES
1. Simple Random Assignment – direct random selection of respondents; the quickest way of randomly determining the samples
2. Use of Table of Random Numbers 3. Fishbowl or Lottery 4. Systematic Random Sampling 5. Stratified Random Sampling – most reliable
sampling technique 6. Cluster Random Sampling 7. Multi-Stage Random Sampling
![Page 66: MECHANICS OF NURSING RESEARCH MECHANICS OF NURSING RESEARCH Jestoni Dulva Maniago, RN., RM., MAN., MA.Ed. (ip) DNSc (ip) Open Researcher and Contributor](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062801/56649e1b5503460f94b09a2f/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
This method does provide equal opportunity or chance for every member of the population to become part of the sample group
Extra caution should be observed in using these techniques and justification should be done whenever these are employed to address the issue of BIAS
B. NONRANDOM OR NONPROBABILITY SAMPLING TECHNIQUES
![Page 67: MECHANICS OF NURSING RESEARCH MECHANICS OF NURSING RESEARCH Jestoni Dulva Maniago, RN., RM., MAN., MA.Ed. (ip) DNSc (ip) Open Researcher and Contributor](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062801/56649e1b5503460f94b09a2f/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)

This section provides a description of the measures or instruments that are to be used in the collecting the data for the study. It articulates justification for selecting such measures or instruments.
In the case that the researcher develops or devices his own instrument, he should therefore discuss how the test was developed and presents base ground for reliability and validity of the instrument.
In qualitative study, the researcher should discuss the nature and the method of the data collected, e.g. interviews, observations, etc.

The research procedure is the most detailed section under method.
It should provide a comprehensive description of all the steps that are to be followed in the conduct of the study, from start to finish, of which the order of time of occurrence is important.
It should describe the process and instructions the subjects are to undertake.
Discussion of time element should be reflected in the research procedure.

At the start of the research plan, the proponent should be sensitive enough to include in the plan the techniques that are to be used in analyzing the data.
Analysis of data primarily depends on the research approach or design used in the study: Quantitative or Qualitative.
In the case of quantitative study, the hypotheses serve as benchmark in determining the design of the study, and in turn determines the statistical analysis to be applied.
The choice of the analysis technique depends on the number of variables, the kind of data, and the nature of sample groupings, included in the study.(sample to follow…)

PRESENTATION, ANALYSIS, ANDINTERPRETATION OF DATA
In this section the researcher is entitled to present the data gathered, analyzes the results logically, and provides interpretation of the findings grounded by assumptions and speculations based on existing theories.
> In the conventional form, the presentation of the results of the study starts with the presentation of the related statistics (in the case of quantitative), followed by the explanation of the analysis of the data presented, and the interpretation (statistical decisions) of the obtained data results.
![Page 81: MECHANICS OF NURSING RESEARCH MECHANICS OF NURSING RESEARCH Jestoni Dulva Maniago, RN., RM., MAN., MA.Ed. (ip) DNSc (ip) Open Researcher and Contributor](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062801/56649e1b5503460f94b09a2f/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
Discussion-this section gives the researcher the opportunity to draw some opinions and/or ideas interpreting the results of the study. Added to this section is the substance of pointing the relative implications of the findings supported by the concepts available in the literature. This section serves as a venue for which the researcher integrates his thoughts backed-up by the theories in the reviewed literature. Also included in this section, is announcing to the readers the limitations of the findings without compromising the generalizability of the findings
![Page 82: MECHANICS OF NURSING RESEARCH MECHANICS OF NURSING RESEARCH Jestoni Dulva Maniago, RN., RM., MAN., MA.Ed. (ip) DNSc (ip) Open Researcher and Contributor](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062801/56649e1b5503460f94b09a2f/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
Presentation of Data-is the process of organizing
data into logical, sequential, and
meaningful categories and classifications to
make them amenable to study and interpretation.

This is the last chapter of the research study, yet, the most
important part, why? Because it is here where the findings, and the whole thesis for that matter, are
summarized; generalizations in the form of conclusive statements are
postulated; and the recommendations for the solutions of problems
discovered in the study are addressed to those concerned, and future
directions related to the conducted study are drawn.
